    Spamcop.net is a great place for reporting spam. All the users of MX
    have been informed to submit any spam getting through the filters to
    Spamcop. I use SpamAssassin to block email, which also checks Spamcops
    database. However its not a wise idea to send all the spam from that
    account to someone like Spamcop, if you get something legitimate?

    On the testing though, signup for some spam lists such as lolfun.com and
    optinbig.com
